Awesome ! One of my best friends owned a 67 Dodge Dart GT convertible exactly like the this one same color with black interior . He sold it in 1994 so it's been 30 yrs. since I saw one . I absolutely loved driving that car .
In the early ‘80s I also had a ‘67 Dart GTS Convertible. It was candy apple red (originally white) with red interior, white roof, and Crager S/S wheels. It only had a 273 in it but it would scoot.
1967 Rouge Lancer My mom had a basement 67 sedan when I was growing up. It replaced a 1953 Plymouth wagon. The 1967 Dart was the basis for Chrysler Australias lineup that included wagons!
The one car I owned I really should have kept! The garage I stored it in 1985 when the transmission gave out was costing me $25 a month though! I had paid $350 for the car in 1983. It was copper metallic with a black vinyl top. It was the 273 with automatic. Hopefully someone else is still enjoying it 😢
Hi Jay! Hmmm. . .Dodge Dart. . .these were neat little cars, but as far as I can remember, (even though I was a WEE lad in 1967) the styling on these wasn't as interesting as, say the Plymouth Barracuda, which I remember seeing on the road, even at 3 years old! But, looking back, the styling is not bad. This little convertible would be a SUPER fun weekend car for someone! With that slant six!! YEAH! I bet the thing was a bullet with a 383! Always a fan of the Magnum 500 wheels! They looked good on anything! WYR. . .Going Ford Falcon here, as I actually had a 1967 Falcon! Wish I had kept it but it was kind of a project and I had to get rid of it. Did run and drive and had a 200 six with factory air conditioning!! Had TERRIBLE brakes, though, thought I was going into a lake when I first drove it! #2, that Demon is pretty slick, although the little slant six Dart is pretty cool too! I can;t decide, so I want both!
WYR's" Dart for both! I never really appreciated these Darts back in the day, but this 67 does have nice styling. Okay, here's my Dart story, which is actually an Oldsmobile story but the Dart takes me back there: I've probably told you this before, so forgive my digress: Grandma wanted to get a new 64 Dodge Dart, and she seemed to usually get her way most times, but Grandpa was the driver in the family (after Grandma rolled her Model A) and Grandpa liked big cars, so he wasn't having any of that Dodge Dart stuff, instead buying a used 62 Olds Super 88 with the "Ultra Hi-compression 394 Skyrocket" engine. It was his last car and we "inherited" it after he passed, and by the time I got my license, it was an old junker that I in no way wanted to be seen in, but damn, that car was still a runner and was a blast to drive!! And it still smelled like Grandpa's cigars inside! I loved that car and I still want a 62 Olds! (Okay, I rambled, sorry)
That’s quite an unusual engine configuration given the tricked-out looking exterior and the dual exhausts; I would have expected a “Commando” 273 or the 383. That’s an unusual 225 Slant Six. I’ve never seen one with an Edelbrock manifold like this one has. A truly great-sounding engine was the 273 with the Offenhauser manifold and the single rectangular exhaust “pipe”.
It looks like that car also had a split exhaust manifold. Not exactly headers, but better flowing than stock. That would explain the dual exhaust. I wonder what the exhaust note sounds like. It also looks like it might have a 2bbl carb. Those slant sixes were strong, and respond well to minor tweaks like that.
An everyman hotrod - I love it. I had a friend whose family car was an early 70s Dart with a slant 6 in a dark green paint color. It was considered a compact car at the time but seems huge in comparison to compact cars now. 🤣 My wife's friend owned a 72 Dodge Dart in turquois paint color. They rusted out pretty quickly around the wheel wells because Kansas liked to salt their roads after freezing rain.
I actually got to ride in a 1967 Dart hardtop in 1990.It was one my friend borrowed from his uncle. I just noticed the sheet metal between the taillights mimics the curvature of the grill. My cars of choice would be the Rogue and the Lancer.
I had a 1962 Lancer 4dr with the 170ci engine manual transmission, one of the best cars ever! Great in the winter with Firestone town and country snow tires never got stuck and great gas mileage when gas was 23 cents per gallon. Replace the car in 1969 with a special order 1970 Dart Custom fully loaded with the 225 ci engine, what a bad experience everything wrong with car from a/c, transmission, brakes, main engine support K member cracking and rust after 2 years. Was last Mopar car ever!! I would love to have a 1962 Lancer again. 😎
Awesome cars! 225 was bullet proof! Only issue was torsion bars would rot out and a 2x4 needed to be shoved in there to lift the car back up... losing any suspension in the process... but it was a common thing around here... Glad you're feeling better, J! Don't over-do! WYR: 1) AMC ragtop! 2) Demon!
you can't even get a convertible in the Falcon because you can't even get a hard top in the Falcon. Mopar A bodies were owning the compact segment by this time.
The only issue I heard in this video is a blurring of the specifications and internal differences between the base 273 (180 h.p) and the HP 273 (235 H.P.) The base 273 was the first step up from a 225 slant 6. The H.P. 273 was Chrysler's smallest high performance V-8. The HP 273 was designed to go up against 289 four barrel Ford engines and 283 Chevrolet four barrel engines.Overall, this is a very nice video about a great car. My first car was a very plain, 225 Slant Six version of the 1967 Dart.
1967 was a total restyle. There is no relationship to the 1966 model. There's the 1963 - 66 generation and the 1967-76 generation. In my opinion, the 1967 restyle is a huge improvement over the previous generation. They only made convertibles in 1967 and 1968. There may have been one offered in 1969, but definitely not in 1970 or later.
This car could be a real sleeper. Plain as can be on the outside but with a 383 it could be the perfect getaway car for a bank robbery. It's light, fast, and nondescript.
Hi Jay. I've been enjoying your channel for a few years & to me, it never gets old. I'm also happy that you present models that most of us could actually afford. I've owned Savoy's, Phoenix's Nomads, Belvederes, Falcons etc. Recently, you mentioned a viewer who criticized your voice imitating a chorus of angels. My voice gets squeaky too! The only bad thing I can say about your voice is that it's constant. Most of us out here can read, You certainly do not need to read every line or measurement regarding the vehicles. We can see it fine & many of us can read faster than you can recite it. Is 'Newton Meter' just another inclusive measurement? I see Metric measurements as well. Please don't recite them! This is my sole critique, except that I'd love to hear your daughter say "TOODLE_LOO" once in a while.
I make all the slides as well and sometimes I find information that’s contradicting so in the slide it will say one thing and I will say something totally different and TH-cam does the subtitles and sometimes they don’t say the same thing as what is being said that makes any sense
For WYR, first scenario it’s both the Dart and the Rouge, and the ‘62 Lancer. I like the overall look of the ‘67 better than the ‘66…good update. Not a bad little car at all. It’s got a Slant 6. I didn’t have the best luck with the one I once had, but it was beaten up before I got it and it didn’t run bad at all for a little while. Glad you’re feeling better now. This seemed to start around the time of your Georgia trip.
When I started driving in 81 there were 60's vintage Darts everywhere. They were a dime a dozen. Most had a little 6 cylinder and were so inexpensive that many were given as a 1st car to a high school kid. Those 6-cylinder models were incredibly slow, so parents felt safer giving them to a new driver. It was very rare in my area to see any of the more high-performance Darts. Nova Demon CCR??
@@What.its.like. There were classic cars back then everywhere and most of them fairly cheap. All of us friends had cars that were 5-20 yrs old when we got our licenses in 1981.
Until you lifted the hood I thought that was a cool car and the first time I'd seen a price which seemed reasonable at this dealership. Now I see why. 6 cyl. in a GT, unacceptable. I went to work for a company in 1974. The wife had a '67-'69 Dart GT coupe. It had a 383 V8, console automatic shifter, factory air conditioning and power windows. Not long after I went to work there, she traded it in on a 1974 mid-size Dodge station wagon that had the fake wood accents on the sides. It only had a 360 V8, no more hot-rodding. The owner drove a 1971 Dodge Coronet station wagon with a 383 V8. In 1976 he traded it in on a new 1976 Dodge Aspen station wagon which only had a 318 V8. lol
@@What.its.like. Yep. A compact car like that with a big V8! Maybe most of those Darts were 6 cyl., but in retrospect, who would want a 6 cyl. if you could have had a V8. Back when those cars were new, gas was cheap, so unless someone was a tightwad and would be happier with a 6 cyl. Rambler, I think that they would have chosen a V8. There were lot's of compact Darts and Valiants of this vintage with 318 V8's, but so many of these cars have gone by the wayside. Some cool one's survived like the convertible Dart GT in the "Angel" TV series. But a Dart GT convertible with a 6, totally unacceptable! I would have atleast dropped a 340 4 barrel V8 in it to replace the 6 or I would have been embarrassed. They can be brought into the current modern times by adding fuel injection and an overdrive 5 or 6-speed or an overdrive TorqueFlite. Maybe even drop in a modern Hemi with the Mercedes automatic? lol
I like the dash in the 67 better and would choose the AMC Rouge in the first and the Dodge Dart in the second. I have always been a fan of these Dodge Darts. Never got a chance to own one. Would have to be a V8 though, even the 273 would be ok. Just not a six. Never liked the way they sounded. I like the sound of very few V6s even. A straight eight has a very pleasent sound but I don't care for a V10. I guess I am just an eight cylinder guy. Thanks Jay.
If I were buying that particular car, I would be a bit concerned about the hood-to-cowl clearance. It looks like at least a 1/2" gap, and the driver side is lower than the pass side. I know Mopar quality was always iffy, but that is pretty bad. Rest of the car looks pretty nice tho. I'll bet that car is pretty fun to drive! WYR= AMC and Demon.
I always liked these and this will be a fun car for someone. I think these are handsome cars but I am not a fan of the grill. I'd choose the 1967 Nova and the 1972 Demon.
Dashboard and styling it's the 67 over the 66 all the way. I like the later front and rear ends better but this was halfway there, and this basic body style lasted many years. GM and Ford were still hesitant to put certain engines in certain cars, but Chrysler was beginning to break that 'rule' about this time, resulting in some rare combinations which people ordered. With the top 383 and a limited-slip rear end this car would have been quick on the street. Most Darts I've seen had the Slant Six with it's reputation for ruggedness and long life along with better power than it's competing Ford and GM sixes. WYR it's the 67 Dart then The Demon. Who couldn't love the Demon or any other of the fast Chrysler cars of it's era?
I traded a beautiful vega wagon plus $200 for a 67 dart gt dark green white top 225 split header to duals bucket seats center console a904 and a right hand automatic wife ejector door ,more than once it tried brakes sucked battery sucked wouldnt start sold it back to car lot vega was gone got $125.00 and was haunted by these 2 old people driving it everwhere id look they fit it well lesson learned mopar is no my car. I will take that 67 nova every day my favorite #1 ride ever
WYR: For both scenarios, I would choose the 67 Dart GT. While I am a big fan of the first gen Falcons, I'm not as fond of the later 60s examples, at least, not as much as a Dart. As for the Chevy or the AMC, I just think they're a bit too plain to look at honestly. And while a '67 might not be as eye-catching as a Lancer, or as souped up as a Demon, I actually think that works to its advantage. That '67 has just enough embellishment to let you know it can be a sporty car - to really make it stand out - while still remaining relatively reserved. It just oozes class, if you ask me. While I tend to love early 60s Mopars, I really don't like the lines on their small cars of the early 60s. I'm not sure how to describe something like the Lancer or the Valiant other than to say they're a bit cartoonish. Of course, that's my own subjective take.
Jay, is it possible to mention GAS TANK Capacity if possible????? A car that get 15 miles per gallon sounds horrible, BUT we forget these big old cars had 25-30 Gallon Gas Tanks,....that's about 375 to 450 miles driving range, about the same distance as modern cars with 10-12 gallon Tanks. I know you do Inflation Adjustment which I like.
I’ll add that information if I can find it There are car now that get 15 or less the wagoneer 392 jeep get 11 if your lucky for direct injection and cylinder deactivation we should be getting gas milage into the 50 mpg
Elwood Engel finally got to totally redesign the Dodge Dart for '67. Great looking car with many power plant options. He personally designed the '64-'66 Imperials and the '66-'67 Dodge Coronet line. For a cost perspective, my '66 Charger with it's options sold for $3,600 in May of '66. th-cam.com/video/csqKv0XDQ0g/w-d-xo.html
WYR, 62 Lancer GT, 67 Rambler Rogue and 67 Dart GT. If I could have only one, it would be the Lancer because it is so wonderfully weird.
Awesome ! One of my best friends owned a 67 Dodge Dart GT convertible exactly like the this one same color with black interior . He sold it in 1994 so it's been 30 yrs. since I saw one . I absolutely loved driving that car .

Awesome what engine do you have in yours
MOPAR OR NOCAR BABY! I dig the slant 6, too! 👍🏻🤘👌😋
Mopar all the way Jay .
That Dart is another good entry level collector car with the 6. First pick 67 Rambler Rouge, second, 62 Lancer GT.

I’ve read where people have gotten some insane hp out of a slant six
Awesome. The Doge Dart was a big car for 1960-61 before becoming a compact.
What a nice example you featured, Jay! And I would guess it's a bit unusual to see a GT with a straight six. I'll take the Falcon and the '67 Dart GT.
Great selections
An everyman hotrod - I love it. I had a friend whose family car was an early 70s Dart with a slant 6 in a dark green paint color.

Oh, that story just got sadder and sadder! From a loaded 383 Dart to an Aspen wagon.
Thank you so much for sharing those memories it would be hard going from 383 to 360 to a 318.. this car with the 383 would feel like a rocket ship
@@What.its.like. Yep. A compact car like that with a big V8! Maybe most of those Darts were 6 cyl., but in retrospect, who would want a 6 cyl. if you could have had a V8. Back when those cars were new, gas was cheap, so unless someone was a tightwad and would be happier with a 6 cyl. Rambler, I think that they would have chosen a V8. There were lot's of compact Darts and Valiants of this vintage with 318 V8's, but so many of these cars have gone by the wayside. Some cool one's survived like the convertible Dart GT in the "Angel" TV series. But a Dart GT convertible with a 6, totally unacceptable! I would have atleast dropped a 340 4 barrel V8 in it to replace the 6 or I would have been embarrassed. They can be brought into the current modern times by adding fuel injection and an overdrive 5 or 6-speed or an overdrive TorqueFlite. Maybe even drop in a modern Hemi with the Mercedes automatic? lol

Most Darts I've seen had the Slant Six with it's reputation for ruggedness and long life along with better power than it's competing Ford and GM sixes.
WYR it's the 67 Dart then The Demon. Who couldn't love the Demon or any other of the fast Chrysler cars of it's era?
I have two friends that have Dodge Darts one is a 1967 with a 273 and the other is a 1969 with a 383.
Sweet =)

I will take that 67 nova every day my favorite #1 ride ever
WYR: For both scenarios, I would choose the 67 Dart GT. While I am a big fan of the first gen Falcons, I'm not as fond of the later 60s examples, at least, not as much as a Dart. As for the Chevy or the AMC, I just think they're a bit too plain to look at honestly. And while a '67 might not be as eye-catching as a Lancer, or as souped up as a Demon, I actually think that works to its advantage. That '67 has just enough embellishment to let you know it can be a sporty car - to really make it stand out - while still remaining relatively reserved. It just oozes class, if you ask me. While I tend to love early 60s Mopars, I really don't like the lines on their small cars of the early 60s. I'm not sure how to describe something like the Lancer or the Valiant other than to say they're a bit cartoonish. Of course, that's my own subjective take.
Nice seat cover design, the back seat with the large embossed panel... sure not a Ford nor a Chevy.
Question 1#4, maybe #2, Question 2 any of them, i would perfer #1,
Jay, is it possible to mention
GAS TANK Capacity if possible?????
A car that get 15 miles per gallon sounds horrible, BUT we forget these big old cars had 25-30 Gallon Gas Tanks,....that's about
375 to 450 miles driving range, about the same distance as modern cars with 10-12 gallon Tanks.
I know you do Inflation Adjustment which I like.
I’ll add that information if I can find it
There are car now that get 15 or less the wagoneer
392 jeep get 11 if your lucky for direct injection and cylinder deactivation we should be getting gas milage into the 50 mpg
Many folks have turbocharged the slant 6 and made 11 second vehicles, such is the robust nature of the engine...
Elwood Engel finally got to totally redesign the Dodge Dart for '67. Great looking car with many power plant options. He personally designed the '64-'66 Imperials and the '66-'67 Dodge Coronet line. For a cost perspective, my '66 Charger with it's options sold for $3,600 in May of '66.
